BACKGROUND: Serotype 24F is one of the emerging pneumococcal serotypes after the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV). We aimed to identify lineages driving the increase of serotype 24F in France and place these findings into a global context. METHODS: Whole-genome sequencing was per...

Accumulation of heavy metals in the coastal ecosystem has become a prodigious problem in any developing countries like Bangladesh. The impact of human activities on some physicochemical parameters and heavy metals was studied in surface water of the Bengal coast, Bangladesh. For ease of description,...

ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) were successfully fabricated by simple combustion process, in which Zn(CH3COO)2 precursors migrated with the aid of alcoholic fuel to the top of a burning lampwick and the chemical reactions occurred at the solvent-air interface of the ignited lampwick, yielding ZnO NPs. Ultr...

Energy consumption for sustainable development has become a crucial issue in recent years. The anthropogenic effects of traditional energy sources (non-renewables) underscore the need for renewable energy and efforts to promote its adoption have comprised policy makers' strategies to achieve sustain...

In recent decades, water quality is a great concern for the human being as it is the most important natural resource but water is polluted by increasing population activities. In this study, surface water samples were collected in the wet and the dry season from Halda River, Bangladesh, and 12 physi...

Natural radioactivity concentrations in recent alluvial soils from swampy areas and Tertiary rocks from Jaintiapur were measured using gamma-ray spectrometer equipped with HPGe detector. The average radioactivity concentration of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K were 47 ± 6, 64 ± 5 and 762 ± 40 Bqkg−1 in soils,...

BACKGROUND: Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) that are ten-valent (PCV10) and 13-valent (PCV13) became available in 2010. We evaluated their global impact on invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) incidence in all ages. METHODS: Serotype-specific IPD cases and population denominators were obtained...

Herein, we have investigated the association behavior of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) using the conductivity method in H2O and H2O + organic mixed solvents at different temperatures. The association phenomenon was detected from the deviation of the conductivit...

The COVID-19 era has profoundly affected everyday human life, the environment, and freshwater ecosystems worldwide. Despite the numerous influences, a strict COVID-19 lockdown might improve the surface water quality and thus provide an unprecedented opportunity to restore the degraded freshwater res...

Multidrug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae emerge through the modification of core genome loci by interspecies homologous recombinations, and acquisition of gene cassettes. Both occurred in the otherwise contrasting histories of the antibiotic-resistant S. pneumoniae lineages PMEN3 and PMEN9. A si...

Safe levels of heavy metals in the surface water and sediment of the eastern Bay of Bengal coast have not been universally established. Current study characterized heavy metals such as arsenic (As), chromium (Cr), cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) in surface water and sediments of the most important fishin...

River water and sediment embody environmental characteristics that give valuable information about the eco-environment. Due to rapid unplanned urbanization and industrialization, the aquatic environment of any urban river can be seriously polluted by heavy metals. Four heavy metals (As, Cr, Cd, and ...

Urban soils pollution by potentially toxic elements (PTEs) due to natural and anthropogenic factors arouses a growing interest in Bangladesh. In this study, nine PTEs (Cr, Ni, Cu, As, Cd, Pb, Fe, Mn and Zn) in five different land-uses urban soils were analysed by inductively coupled plasma mass spec...

While global attention has been primarily focused on the occurrence and persistence of microplastics (MP) in urban lakes, relatively little attention has been paid to the problem of MP pollution in rural recreational lakes. This pioneering study aims to shed light on MP size, composition, abundance,...
